Comprehensive Training in Neuroimaging Fundamentals and Applications

我们寻求美国国立卫生研究院的赞助，以支持我们在这方面的创新和成功计划 神经成像的应用，TIAT的前提是相信明天的神经科学家很可能 需要在工作中掌握神经成像方法和原则，以应对日益增长的 并进行研究，以最大限度地促进我们对人类行为的理解 认识到这一应用包括T-90和R-90两个组成部分，适用于我们的博士前学生。这个 加州大学洛杉矶分校神经影像综合训练计划(NITP)训练博士生 神经成像是基本的--大多数或所有神经成像都是共同的--以识别快速变化 已经发生并将在成像技术领域继续进行的研究。它们暴露在异常完整的范围内 从细胞到整个大脑的成像方法，从结构到动态的成像方法，并包含先进的多峰 成像。NITP既是对现有神经科学项目的补充，也是对现有项目的参与 而计算生物学已经在加州大学洛杉矶分校得到了很好的发展。学生受益于大而多的 体验神经影像学院和为该项目新开发的课程。NITP已经成为 在多个系的研究生课程中，其核心课程的原则是不可或缺的 神经成像是神经科学、计算、物理学和信号处理的桥梁和整合。 为了完善NITP，我们开发了一个夏季短期课程，由每年两周的课程组成 高级功能神经成像。这门课程邀请了30到40名精心挑选的学者参加 高级主题和方法的沉浸式课程，包括讲课形式的课堂培训、日常计算机 实验室专注于计算工具和核磁共振物理，以及由开发、运行和分析的成像项目 学生参与者。

We seek sponsorship from thie NIH to support our innovative and successful program in thie fundamentals and applications of neuroimaging, tiiat is premised on the belief that neuroscientists of tomorrow are likely to require mastery of neuroimaging methods and principles in their work to address the growing burden of neurological disease and to perform the studies that will best advance our understanding of human behavior and cognition this applications includes both T-90 and R-90 components for our pre-doctoral students. The UCLA Comprehensive Neuroimaging Training Program (NITP) trains pre-doctoral students in principles of neuroimaging that are fundamental - common to most or all neuroimaging - in recognition of the rapid changes that have occurred and will continue in imaging technology. They are exposed to an unusually complete range of imaging approaches from cellular to whole brain, from structural to dynamic and inclusive of advanced mutiimodality imaging. The NITP is both complementary to, and participatory in, existing programs in neurosciences and computational biology already well established at UCLA. The students benefit from the large and experience neuroimaging faculty and from courses newly developed for this program. The NITP has become integral to the graduate programs in multiple departments where its core courses in the Principles of Neuroimaging serve to bridge and integrate neuroscience, computation, physics and signal processing. Rounding out the NITP we have developed a summer Short Course consisting of an annual two-week course in Advanced Functional Neuroimaging. This course brings in 30 to 40 carefully selected scholars for an immersive program in advanced topics and methods, including lecture style classroom training, daily computer labs focused on computational tools and MRI physics, and imaging projects developed, run and analyzed by the student participants.
